Three more people in San Francisco have succumbed to COVID-19, officials announced Friday, bringing the city’s death toll from the respiratory illness to 20.

There were 1,058 confirmed cases in the city Friday, an increase of 39, or 3.8%, from the previous day. Three more patients were admitted to intensive care units, bringing the total in hospital beds to 91, with 28 in ICUs.

Two more residents of the Multi-Service Center South tested positive, increasing the number of cases at the city’s largest homeless shelter to 105 — 95 guests and 10 staff members.

San Francisco had been outpacing the rest of the region in new cases last week, but it has slowed considerably this week. The city has added 101 new cases since the start of the week, a 10% increase, compared to 214 last Monday through Friday, a 36.7% jump.

Even as the pace of new cases slows, the city has been expanding its testing capacity.

It had gotten results back from 10,000 tests in the latest update provided Friday morning. Labs in the city have conducted nearly 3,000 tests in the past week, a 13% increase in testing capacity over the previous seven-day period. About 12.2% of samples this week have come back positive vs. about 13.4% in the week prior.

The three new fatalities in San Francisco pushed the state closer to 1,000 coronavirus-related casualties. In the Bay Area, the death toll has swelled by 26% in two days.
